Use the CS (Contains String) Function instead of the LIKE clause within your select

HI a®s,

there is different option to do that since

I'm not sure about performance aspects since you collect all the data from the table

and than you do the logic .

Thanks and Regards

This may be my another suggestion.

Can it be create & maintain another field in the table ZROLE with UPPER case value of field agr_name ?

then you make select on that field

This is only a suggestion

Hi,

If the database table field's dataelement is case sensitive then the search automatically happens in case sensitive mode.

You don't have to do explicitly.

Hi,

If the definition is not case sensitive, then always the data is stored in CAPS by default.

So what u can do it, translate your string to UPPER CASE and then select.

Place below statement just before your select.

TRANSLATE lv_search_value TO UPPER CASE.

SELECT agr_name UP TO iv_limit ROWS

FROM ZROLE

INTO TABLE lt_re_role

WHERE agr_name LIKE lv_search_value.

Thanks,

Vinod.

Otherwise

SELECT agr_name UP TO iv_limit ROWS
FROM ZROLE 
INTO TABLE lt_re_role
WHERE agr_name ne space.

then

LOOP AT lt_re_role .
IF lt_re_role-agr_name CS v_name.
